The aim of this course is to ensure that students understand they will design by experimenting, improving their relationships with proportions, scale, and their hands.

1. Visual Expression Skills: Students will gain confidence in expressing their thoughts and ideas with correct proportions and scales by working with materials. By practicing basic drawing skills and methods, they will be able to communicate their designs more effectively.
2. Development of 3D Skills: The course focuses on improving students’ abilities to quickly create models and mock-ups. Students will be able to consider the product from all angles, including surfaces and textures.
3. Understanding and Communicating Products:The course aims to develop students’ skills in understanding and communicating products, particularly those suitable for small-scale hand use, from the perspective of a user as well.

1. Week: Introduction to the course, the necessity of model-making, and thinking with models. Alongside the studio course project, students will experiment with model-making in a design-focused approach. A tray or serving product will be created as an example.
2. Week: Cutting sheets with tools such as scissors, modeling knives, shaping, and gluing. Laminating to gain shape, curves, and strength.
3. Week: Producing alternatives for product handling, surface treatments, sanding, and creating clean products.
4. Week: Completion and presentation of the first product.
5. Week: Creation of a temperature meter model, disassembling the existing product, testing the internal components.
6. Week: Building volume with layers, model-making from inside to outside, experimenting with material differences.
7. Week: Presentation of the second product, showing surface quality with different materials, interfaces, textures. Polyester, silicone casting, and mold processes will be demonstrated.
8. Week: Experimenting with 3D queries for a product family, using molds to reproduce and predict further developments.
9. Week: Producing alternatives and conducting material studies on the effect of material and surface differences on design.
10. Week: Investigating the relationships of the product family individually and as a whole.
11. Week: Improving surface quality to understand and communicate products.
12. Week: Final project preparation and general review.
